Fabulous, it's amazing. Thank you for the 54 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: work that you do very importantly. Are huge supporters upon 55 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: parent HU. Really we really do, we really, we won't 56 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: get into those. We really appreciate you. Yeah. So, I 57 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: mean one of the topics today that we want to 58 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: specifically we're going to focus on is the Latino community, 59 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: right and why sex education is really important, especially in 60 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: the Latino community. So can we just get into it 61 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: and let's talk about it? Yeah, um, sure, So I 62 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: guess from my perspective being like growing up in a 63 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: Mexican household and stuff, it was always very taboo either 64 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: because you know, not everybody, of course, but there's always 65 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: like the religious aspect of it and like the family 66 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: and the fixing and the traditional stuff, so nobody really 67 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: talks about it. But also nobody really expects you to 68 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: do it. And it's like, well, okay, that doesn't make 69 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: any sense, right, So then um, but there's a lot 70 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: of misconceptions going around too. So um we go to 71 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: especially like lower income communities where there again the lack 72 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: of resources, a lack of inphone education, and then there 73 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: a lot of young people are already engaging in sexual 74 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: contact and stuff like that. So then you get all 75 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: these kinds of questions like oh, I can't kept pregnant 76 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: if I'm on top or like, for example, there's the 77 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: concept of like virginity and like if you do it 78 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: like anally, like it doesn't count and all this stuff, 79 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: and it's like and then I have to like sit 80 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: there and explain well, like virginity is and idea, But 81 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: any kind of sexual contact there's always like a risk. 82 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: But even with my own mom, like she's always been 83 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: pretty um not super covered up and not super open either, 84 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: mainly because I think she doesn't know, but not through 85 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: any of our their own fault, right, Like she grew 86 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: up in Mexico, Like who's gonna tell her that? She's 87 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: like when I got my period, I thought I was dying. 88 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, even though she had older sisters, so she 89 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: didn't want to give that us that experience. So she 90 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: sat there and talk to us about it. But I 91 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: remember one time I was like using the restroom and 92 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: I had a tampon it and she was like, how 93 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: do you impe with that? And so like I had 94 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: to sit there and explain to her, like give her 95 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: an anatomy lesson. So it just stems from that lack 96 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: of education and stuff, I think. But so true like 97 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: in our community and the Latino communities there really is 98 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: that we just do not talk about it at all. Yeah. 99 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,919 Speaker 1: I remember when I was in high school and I 100 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: wanted to use the tampon because I wanted to go swimming, right, 101 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: And it was a huge deal that I would like 102 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: even think about wearing a tampon, right, because then it 103 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: meant something else, right, my cousins, Like, that's only for 104 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: across that I've already had sex, and I was like, yes, 105 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: my mom would say that you would only use tampons 106 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: after you had children, Like what kind of lodgic, you 107 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: know what I mean? But that was they bent their 108 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: own little things too. Yeah, And it's I also feel 109 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: that so much of this has to just do with like, 110 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: if you need to know anything about anything in the world, 111 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: you know, the math that we learn, the trigonometry, we 112 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,119 Speaker 1: learn all this ridiculous ship and then we know nothing 113 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: about our body. Right, It's so wild, Like that's like 114 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: home base. That's the first piece of knowledge we should 115 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: be having is our own bodies, right. I always say that, 116 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: like health should be required every single year, like math is. 117 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: But I mean it might be pretty wias but anyway, 118 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna use for the rest of your life. 119 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: Are you gonna use a proble later? I don't know. 120 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: Maybe not. You should know how your period happens, you know, 121 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: because I'm sitting there explaining the menstrual cycle and everybody's 122 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: like what, yeah, so, and there's so much to learn. 123 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: Oh my god, there's a ton of information. I'm even learning. 124 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 1: We're all learning at our organization every single day. Every 125 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: day something new is coming out every day. There's advances 126 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: and something, especially when we're talking about the queer community too, 127 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: because we also talk about gender and sexuality, like we 128 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: have a whole presentation on that, and then that goes 129 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: back to our you know, Latin XT communities to how 130 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of homophobia sometimes and like a lot 131 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: of traditional views and ideas. And sometimes the kids want 132 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: to challenge you on that, but because you know, that's 133 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: all they've known. But even then I tell them, like, 134 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: I get it. It's a little overwhelming. Sometimes you have 135 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: new terms every single day, but like all you can 136 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: do is like the understanding. You know, even that in 137 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: and of itself, it's kind of hard to keep up 138 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: with sometimes, and that's a tough place to be. There's 139 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: so many layers because you have, like, for example, my 140 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: particular community and context are Roman Catholic Mexicans, so you 141 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: have that the religious piece, the culture piece, the sex 142 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: shaming on top of like the heteronormativity. It's just all compounded, 143 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: so you have no wiggle room, right, And so then 144 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: they're like and when if and when they do talk 145 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: to you, it's about like getting married or having children, 146 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: and it's like God do you know if I'm straight, 147 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: you don't know. I think. One of the only times 148 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: my mom referenced sex with me was we had a cousin, 149 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: well a lot a lot of the women in my 150 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: family have children very young fifteen sixteen, and so we 151 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: had a cousin and they called us to tell us 152 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: that our cousin was going to have a baby. And 153 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: my mom said to me, this was the only time 154 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: she talked to me about sex of my first memory. 155 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: If you ever get pregnant, you might as well buy 156 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: your father his coffin, because you will kill your father. 157 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I'm like, so how do I avoid this, 158 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: this thing, this horrible, awful thing, because they threaten you, 159 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: but then they don't tell you how, but then they 160 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: expect you to be like, you know, absinute or whatever. 161 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 1: And it's like in this day and age, come on, 162 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: come on, rest, I get it. You don't want to 163 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: think of your child, you know, engaging lot stuff, but like, again, 164 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: let's let's be real. Listed yeah. No. My mom her 165 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: sex talk to me was like I don't have I 166 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: don't have sex and married okay by and then she 167 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: shut the door of my room and I was like, Okay. 168 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: I remember when I was I feel like because I 169 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: came out at a really young age, came out right, 170 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: and I um, I feel like I didn't have my 171 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: parents were able to avoid the sex talk in like 172 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: a very specific wave, but they were like what are 173 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: we going to tell you? Right? So I remember plant 174 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: parents had been one of the first resources online like 175 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: being able to look like, well, how do I protect myself, 176 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: like if I'm having sex with another woman? Right? Another girl? Right? 177 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: It was in high school, so plan parent had was 178 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 1: like one of the only resources at the time where 179 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: I could like really learn about any type of sexual 180 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 1: or my own sexuality, right. And then also in our communities, 181 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: like it's really pushing me preventing the pregnancy stuff. But 182 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: they almost never touched on the st I its like 183 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: maybe I've heard my mom once or twice say like like, okay, 184 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: you know what this is kind of getting into. Why 185 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: don't we talk about what are some of the misconceptions 186 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,719 Speaker 1: that you hear the most often? Because there's probably like 187 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: a top ten Oh, so like we get a lot 188 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: of can I get pregnantive dot dot dot hypotheticals? Yeah, 189 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: if I'm on top, if I'm on on JCUZI if 190 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: I'm this, if I'm that, and I'm just like listen 191 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: anytime that fluid gets anywhere near or around the volva. 192 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: And I do have to sometimes explain what a volve 193 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 1: is for those of you out there who don't know. 194 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 1: When a person has a vaginant and they're laying down, 195 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: it's everything that you can see on the outside, okay, 196 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: because the giant is on the inside. It's okay, we 197 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: all learned sometimes, but if the ejaculation gets anywhere near 198 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 1: around there, it can cause a pregnancy. And then a 199 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: lot of misconceptions too, is that abstinence is just like 200 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: you know, penetrative sex like penis to vagina because like 201 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: again it's a very narrow way and a very straight 202 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: way of looking at it. But I'm like, no, any 203 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: kind of sex, there's always a risk, whether it's vaginal sex, 204 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: sinal sex, oral sex. And then the thing that like 205 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: they look super shocked when I say, is I'm like 206 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: naked general to general rubbing and or contact, like nothing 207 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: even has to make an inside doesn't have to mean 208 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: any penetration or insertion all right, Again, it takes this 209 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: for those flutes to touch to either cause the pregnancy 210 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: or anta transmission, and then they're like, well, how do 211 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: you cause a pregnancy through oral sex? I'm like, I mean, 212 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: you know what, don't know? People are doing their personal life. 213 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,719 Speaker 1: There's so many different ways that Yeah, I don't know 214 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: where the affluids are going, all right, but okay, I'll 215 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: give you. I'll give that to you. Not likely will 216 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 1: call it a lower risk in the field, but I'm like, 217 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: but you can still get an s T I. Another 218 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: misconception is how Plan B works. People think they just 219 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 1: take it and it's like a fail safe um. But 220 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: the thing is that it's not a birth control method. 221 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: We don't call it a birth control method. The sooner 222 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: someone takes it, the more effective it'll be, so like 223 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: by day one it's going to be in your eighty 224 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: nine range. But those and the Plan B as well 225 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: as the oral birth control also there are limits as 226 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: far as like weight and how effective they are right 227 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: right right rate, So like Plan B M it was, 228 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: Plan B is not recommended for anybody that weighs over 229 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 1: a hundred and sixty pounds like most people. Yes, that's 230 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: why sometimes at our health winners and stuff, they'll tell 231 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: you to take L instead just for everybody to take 232 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: because that one doesn't have the weight restriction. Interesting. Yeah, 233 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: that's good to know. I don't know. I don't know 234 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: that's something new today. Okay, So that's a big misconception too, 235 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: is like you've taken it's like a failsafe to from 236 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: my pregnancy. But all it's trying to stop is ovulation. 237 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: And I'm sure we all ovulated in here. Can we 238 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: know when that happens with right Most most of the 239 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: time it's a human to me. It's not like you're like, 240 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: oh my god, my egg fought my right over, you know, 241 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: real it, and it changes through diet, through stress of activity. 242 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: So it's just like better than doing nothing. But like 243 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: we hear a lot of young people, especially like I'm 244 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: just gonna pop win in, go out and protected sex. 245 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: I'll be cool. It's like that's not how r Yeah, No, 246 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: that this is all really important to know. And I 247 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: know that we have listeners who are younger, but even 248 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: our listeners who are like adult women, you know. Yeah, 249 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: there's so much there is so much misinformation at all 250 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: age levels. I feel like now that I'm in a 251 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: relationship with a sister heterod man, like I've had to 252 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,199 Speaker 1: really like up my sex education because I wasn't having 253 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 1: you know, sex with men, and so now it's like 254 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: really being twenty four, like having to like basically take 255 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: sex out again right on my own. So for me, 256 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: like having these type of free resources are really important 257 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: because we're still learning at any age. You know. It's 258 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: such a great movie to talk about this too, Like 259 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: that's culturally relevant. The movie King signa Yes. I was 260 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: thinking that that fabulous movie because it also includes a 261 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: queer character, the queer brother, and and she she has penetrated, 262 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 1: she doesn't, but she got pregnant. Pregnant. Oh my god, 263 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna run home and watch it because like I've heard, 264 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 1: and it's and it also combines, you know the issue 265 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 1: of gentrification because it's based in Silver Lake. Oh so 266 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: they're like they're like a Mexican American family that's like 267 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: originally from the neighborhood and they're dealing with all these 268 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,959 Speaker 1: white people coming in and she's getting pregnant and the 269 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: queer brother and brother. It takes it really takes like 270 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: the Virgin Hord's dichotomy and like flips it off, okay, 271 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: and it's really good. All our listen, listen. Yeah, yeah, 272 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: it's really good. Yeah. No, it's really interesting that you 273 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: mentioned the virgin because like I had a really cool 274 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: women's studies professor in college, but she's like and we 275 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 1: were like, um, it was like um feminism and like 276 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: Latina Latin X communities or whatever, and we have like 277 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 1: the virgin Mary, right, the whole concept again going back 278 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: to religion where she was a mother, because it's very 279 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: important to be a mother and all that, but she 280 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: was a virgin. So it's like that kind of subconsciously 281 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: like sometimes messages the women in our community sext right, Yeah, exactly. 282 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: It's an impossible standard. Yeah, you're damned if you do 283 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: damned if you don't have a possible role model. Yeah. 284 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: So I think this is a good time to go 285 00:14:38,520 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: into our break song break um, and and we are back. 286 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: So we are leading into our in January, right, So 287 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: we're leading into the Women's March. Right. Last year local 288 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: we covered it on Bucket Moving in Bethan right, right, 289 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: if we're gonna hold like women accountable, that was like 290 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: our sink or something like that. It's it's round two. 291 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: So we're gonna be talking about the Orange County Women's March. Um, 292 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: we're really excited, so let's let's get into it. I 293 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: know Rebecca that you're one of the organizers, and Anna 294 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: so are you. So what can we look forward to 295 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: this year for the OC Women's March? So this year 296 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: it'll be a little bit different. We're getting get ready 297 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: for the crowds. Last year, just to kind of take 298 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: you back in time, we weren't expecting more than maybe 299 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: a thousand and five thousand folks and we ended up 300 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: having in downtown Santana, which is not a big space. UM, 301 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: but it was really nice to see just the community 302 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: and everyone come out. UM. So this year we're really 303 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: going to be focusing more on the power of women. 304 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: Obviously we're gonna be highlighting me too and make sure 305 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: that turns into never again because we've been dealing with 306 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: that for way too long. And we're also going to 307 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: talk about women in leadership roles and voting because it's 308 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: important if women actually come out to vote, this place 309 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: would look a very different LA and Orange County. UM. 310 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: And last year, the reason we did it in Orange County, 311 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: we were actually thinking of taking a pink bus all 312 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: of us up to l A and joining the l 313 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: A crowd and one of our folks, um, one of 314 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: our community partners, said, you know, we can't keep burning 315 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: away from Orange County if we wanted to change, we 316 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: got to stay here interesting and make this change. So 317 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 1: we said, you know it, Yeah, let's do it it 318 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: and and we we were tired, but we did it 319 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: and it was amazing. Um. So this year, I know 320 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,479 Speaker 1: one of the criticisms last year was it wasn't as 321 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: as inclusive like you said, Stan right, we want a 322 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: whole white women accountable. Well, this year really making sure 323 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: that it's inclusive, um, for all of our Latino community 324 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: and for all of our communities represented in Orange County, 325 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: from our API communities or African American communities. Um, we're 326 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: gonna have great speakers from Black Lives Matter.

They were happy. 339 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: I didn't see a frown. I didn't see anybody upset. Um. 340 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 1: You know, one of the we had counter protesters show 341 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: up that we're anti everything.

And there was of course a birth 389 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: control mandate that was happening, um where there was a 390 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: mandate where they were going to restrict and not have 391 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 1: birth control be free um and covered by your insurance. Right. 392 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,159 Speaker 1: So we were talking at one of the clubs and 393 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 1: they had their parents. There is likely they bring the 394 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: parents to talk about these subjects, and a lot of 395 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: the moms were saying, well, why do they need a 396 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: birth control? Is only for people that get pregnant, you know, 397 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: and we had to kind of stop, and I'm not 398 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: the health educator, the fabulous Rebecortora, and so what we're talking, yeah, 399 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: you know, and and intersects. You know, you talk about 400 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: the laws that affect us, and then we talk about 401 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: just sex education. And this is why they're able to 402 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: do these things and create these horrible laws and rest 403 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: distance such a way because our folks don't know, right, 404 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: some of those reproductive right now. Some of those medical 405 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: reasons include like people with a varian cysts for example, 406 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: Like they're prone to that. So wealth country gonna help 407 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: with that. Irregular periods, same thing. Um, long you lead heavily, 408 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: you have really backcrams that can help you regulate it 409 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 1: acne to like, um, so all those different things as well, 410 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: some really life saving issues, so like people with polycystical 411 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: variance syndrome for example. So, um, it's very important that 412 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: we look like, yeah, it's for family planning. We want 413 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: to take care, we want to decide when to have 414 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: our children. That's also very important. But there's also some 415 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: other medical reasons for it that people are not aware of, right, yeah, 416 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: absolutely right, and that there are no go ahead, no 417 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: at the march, we're going to be talking about reproductive 418 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: rights as well. Um, we have a few great speakers 419 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: that are gonna be talking about that. Um. And the 420 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: other big, big issue in Orange County and it's a 421 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: serious one. It's human trafficking. Okay, we're when I have 422 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: some great, two amazing speakers Dr Nadi and UIs that 423 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: are going to talk about human trafficking and what that 424 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 1: looks like. And um, you know it's just Orange Canty 425 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: Is is a big, big that's a huge issue in 426 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: our area. So that's such sex trafficking, sex special media. 427 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: It's just a huge for it because you know, the 428 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: more tourism there is, the higher the rates of human 429 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: trafficking are. Unfortunately, and people think that it's something happening 430 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 1: like in a far away land, you know, they think 431 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: of the movie Taken. But then like again we mentioned education, 432 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: like hey, sorry to give you this by the information, 433 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: but it's happening right at home. Yeah, I am with 434 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 1: my job. They actually sent me to do a two 435 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: day training in Connecticut one year with this organization called 436 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: the Polarist Project, and they're an anti slavery organization and 437 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: they're based out of DC. So they really treat sex 438 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,479 Speaker 1: trafficking as slavery, right, and they give us this training 439 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: and the specific and they flew in specifically like Spanish 440 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 1: speaking um and like Latino X, like rape crisis advocates 441 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: from all across the country, especially from states where there's 442 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: larger like Latin X populations. And so we were learning 443 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: about sex trafficking in the shoot, but the case study 444 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: that they gave us to exemplify the issue was out 445 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: of Mexico and the sex trafficking that has just been 446 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: born out of there and has been cultivated over the generations, 447 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: and how you know, the Southwest, but also New York 448 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 1: and the Eastern seaboard, like all these like mexicanas and 449 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: Central American women, Caribbean women, women from all over. We're 450 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 1: really coming through Mexican and then coming to these different places. 451 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: I also like, I think that it's so telling too, 452 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: because we don't have the information about our own bodies 453 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 1: and about our own sexuality, and we don't have control. 454 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: But here we are being trafficed for the purposes of sex. 455 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: And then again there's all sorts of misc consumptions then 456 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: and then the whole shaming comes back to like if 457 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: that happened to you some people, some women are ashamed 458 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: to come forward with it because again these internalized ideas 459 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: like you know, I'm somehow disgusting or dirty or disdained 460 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: or whatever, you know. And again we need more of 461 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: that education, more of that because everything, all of it 462 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: comes full circle and that connects together the voting rights, 463 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 1: our bodies. You know, if you need to understand how 464 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: important it is for you to vote because you're going 465 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: to protect your own body and all that stuff. And 466 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: sometimes again people in our community, um, again not do 467 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: any full of their own Sometimes you know, people don't 468 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: have access to those resources. There's tools to let them 469 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 1: know what I do or to go to vote, like 470 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: what I vote on you know. Right, So, and these 471 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,479 Speaker 1: issues in Orange County especially and everywhere everywhere else you're 472 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: in your bubble, right and everybody thinks Orange County is 473 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 1: this like Disneyland is are and you know, the beaches 474 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 1: are there and all this other stuff. Um, but if 475 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: we don't bring these issues to light, and we're not 476 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: going to change them. So we got to get folks 477 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: a little uncomfortable, let them know this is happening in 478 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: your backyard, so we can make these changes. We can 479 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: shake the table a little bit, just a little bit, 480 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: the same with plug for for my department. So with 481 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: all this education is very important. So if anybody's out 482 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: there in Orange County, whether it's a youth organization, we 483 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: also work with adults and parents, training for professionals and 484 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: anything like that, go ahead and just reach us through 485 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: our website, contact us for some education if you like, 486 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: because again it starts starts in the macro area.
